Short Answer:

Not all forms of fungi either are mushrooms or produce what we call mushrooms.

Mushrooms and toadstools are examples of fungi. The most familiar mushrooms are from club fungi.

More:

The group of organisms we call fungi, includes yeasts and molds as well as mushrooms.

When most people see a sporocarp they call this a mushroom or toadstool. This fleshy fruiting body is only the visible part of the living organism that is popular for eating. The fruiting body only develops as part of the asexual phase of the fungal life cycle for spore production.
